UConn Huskies vs. Florida Gators Key Stats

UConn ranks pretty high in every category, but where they've especially stood out is with how they've taken care of the ball and gotten to the free-throw line. As a team, the Huskies average 18 assists per game to just 13 turnovers. They play at a decently fast pace and shoot a very efficient 47.5% from the field, and leading scorer Adama Sanogo has torched defenses all year long. He averages 18.7 points on 61.1% from the field, and he's steadily gotten better each year. Senior transfer Tristen Newton has been a great addition, and he's currently posting averages of 11.4 points, 4.6 boards, and 4.2 assists. Sharpshooter Jordan Hawkins and the versatile Andre Jackson have been great too, and as a whole, this team is firing on all cylinders right now.

Florida has looked really good in their past two games, albeit playing some really weak opponents. Still, they boast three double-digit scorers, including Colin Castleton, who leads the team in scoring (16.6) and rebounding (7.4). He's been great, but contributions from guards Will Richard, Trey Bonham, and Kyle Lofton can't be overlooked. The Gators average 81 points per game, and their main weaknesses have been on the defensive end this year, especially guarding the three-ball.

UConn Huskies vs. Florida Gators Betting Prediction

UConn is rightfully ranked fifth in the nation right now, but this will be their first actual road game of the year. They've won all their games this year, and they've covered eight of nine with one push. In neutral games, they're 3-0 also, and even though the Gators are 4-1 at home and could challenge the Huskies today, ultimately, the visitors are too talented to suffer their first defeat tonight. Back UConn here to win and cover as the Gators have underperformed against strong competition this year.

Prediction: UConn -4 (-110)
